Chapter 78.2 The Game (Part 2)

The angry and disgruntled giggling of the mother and the resentful son didn't impress me at all. The rest of the family had almost no reaction to this episode. But the fact that this scarecrow frightened Gabrielle so much, I'll remember it again, but only if he starts his mating games with our "Teapot" again. If that happens, I'll be even harder on him.

He's a bad-looking dog. When I saw the movie, I wondered what Nyasha-Fleur saw in this "sucker". Pretty, smart, from a rich family, a participant of the Triwizard Tournament, and got involved with "this"?

Strange, don't you think? Besides, I already know that blonde nanny, and I declare authoritatively — tsundere! But even though she's "tsundere" that doesn't mean she's stupid. So I'll be on the lookout for any weird shit that happens.

Describing the game itself does not make much sense, because letters do not convey all the drive when players perform aerobatics or literally miss a serious danger by millimeters. Yes, it's breathtaking when the pros play, and that's why all the conversations took place only after a particularly desperate and beautiful feint or some other event. Ah yes, the Omnioculars!

It's a very funny thing, but it's a pity that the memory in it is a "pussycat": while you hold it in your hands, the artifact is charged by auric radiation, the object's charms create a kind of memory, which allows you to review the "record" with different acceleration.

But it's worth letting go of the omnioculars, and in half an hour the record disappears, and the object itself turns into a strange theatrical binoculars with a bunch of gadgets. It's a shame, of course, because I would have loved to revisit some of those moments. I think there was some kind of artifact for memories, though, wasn't there? The headmaster of Hogwarts used it a lot. I don't remember.

The end of the game was marked by the traditional roar of the stands in honor of the winners and losers. Although I'm sure the Weasley twins screamed for more than that, if I remember correctly. By the way, yes, there's a striped beast to teach....

— Mister! Yes, yes, you, in the double set! — The twins gave me a strange look, but held back as I approached. — This may be a bit rude of me, but I know you've been bidding. — The boys frowned slightly, but waited silently for me to continue. — Well, I wanted to warn you that a hundred percent payout is only guaranteed by the goblins in the bank, sealed with a contract. Otherwise, the crooks are very resourceful, so I advise you to make sure that the bookie does not escape, and the payment — carefully check the magic for forgery. — For a few seconds, the lanky boys were silent.

— Thank you for the information, Mister. — one of the two almost identical men nodded dignifiedly. — We'll use it. — The other nodded gravely.

— I've made a few small bets myself, — I chuckle. — So I checked the information thoroughly. Good day, gentlemen...

— Weasley, Frederick and George. — The boys nodded in turn.

— Hoshino, Sora. — I nod back and we go our separate ways.

I looked at the two redheads who slipped into the stream of people. We decided to wait as usual. Because of my girlfriend's hobbies, I have been to many gatherings of different people with different hobbies, we were even offered to go to a swingers party, but I will never share my woman with leftist men.

But that's not the point. I've heard various discussions on the subject of Weasleys and 'blood traitors'. There were many versions, but all agreed that the canonical explanation was a cop-out. So what is the Blood Traitor Signet? In a nutshell, it's two types of wizards. The first type are traitors to their own kind, those who have broken some of their own internal laws, statutes, perhaps magical oaths.

This is reflected in the destruction of the subtle channels of communication with the upper astral, the first spiritual planes, as well as a strong blow to the ancestral altar with the possibility of its destruction.

If the first is not important for all the gifted, then the second can cause a powerful disturbance of the energies along with the destruction of the altar, and the ancestral gifts can simply be "washed away".

This automatically lowers the status of such a clan, as it becomes no different from other gifted clans with a much shorter history, and some functions become inaccessible altogether.
